The South Omaha study area is bordered by Harrison Street on the south, the Missouri River on the east. The western boundary varies from Interstate 480 to 42nd Street and the northern boundary varies from Center Street to Interstate 80. The boundaries are very similar to the historical city of South Omaha city limits when it was incorporated into the city of Omaha in 1915.
